Elastic Energy Storage in Biological Materials: Internal Stresses and Their Functionality
Harnessing and storing internally generated elastic energy is a clever strategy by biological materials to perform functions like shape transformation, movement, and predation. This review explores how biological systems manipulate mechanisms like atomic or protein integration into minerals, protein conformational shifts, phase transitions, and osmotic

This study presents a novel 4D bioprinting technique for fabricating cardiac tissues with complex microvasculature. Unlike traditional 3D printing, it enables capillary‐scale structure formation via selective post‐printing shrinkage. This approach overcomes resolution limits of printing cell‐laden hydrogels, allowing the creation of functional ...

Live Quantitative Characterization for Stem Cell Biomechanics
These findings demonstrate an accessible technique for real‐time, high‐resolution mechanical mapping of live stem cells, without the use of specialised probes or advanced modelling techniques. This approach provides direct insight into localised cytoskeletal dynamics under chemical treatment and holds potential for broader application in understanding ...
